Make note of where the vCard file lands on your hard drive, most likely in the Downloads folder. When you do, iCloud will pack all your contacts into a single vCard, which will then get downloaded to your desktop.
Click the Settings button again select Export vCard. Now click the Settings button (the one that looks like a gear) in the bottom corner of the page, then click Select All. Next, click Contacts, then click All Contacts in the left column. Visit from a web browser, then log in with your username and password. The first thing you’ll need to do is log in to your iCloud account. Note: Google hosts a third-party tool that will do the work of importing your iCloud contacts for you, but the tool gave me an error when I tried it with my iCloud account-and besides, I’ve always been squeamish about handing over passwords to third parties, and you probably should be too. You can export all your iCloud contacts into a single vCard file in just a few clicks. There are plenty of third-party apps and services that promise to sync iCloud contacts with Google, but we’re going to do this the old-fashioned (and free) way-using vCard files, and that means briefly jumping to a desktop browser.
Best of all, your contacts will be waiting for you if you ever decide to cross the street from iOS to Android.Įxport a vCard file with all your iCloud contacts
Indeed, once you’ve finished the process, you may forget that the contacts on your iPhone or iPad are stored somewhere other than iCloud, and you’ll love it when a contact pops instantly into the “To:” field whenever you compose a Gmail message in a desktop browser. Once you’ve moved your address book over to Gmail, you’ll still be able to access your contacts through the iOS Contacts app.

Whether you’re thinking of making the jump to Android or you’re an iPhone-toting Gmail user who wants your updated contacts in the same place as your mail, transferring your iCloud contacts to Gmail is a snap, and you don’t need any third-party apps to do it.
